WE TESTED: 9.5°, 10.5°, 12° with Ping TFC 169D graphite shaft; 8.5°, 9.5°, 10.5° with Ping TFC 169D Tour graphite shaft.
KEY TECHNOLOGIES:
Ping K15 Irons The elongated profile and external weighting strategically position the club’s CG (center of gravity) for high-launch, low-spin shots. The low-density titanium head enables more mass to be shifted around to maximize forgiveness on heel and toe hits.
OUR TESTERS SAY: One of the top-rated models. a worthy descendant to a long line of great drivers.
PROS
DISTANCE: This bomber seems to have an added gear where most lose gas; minimal loss on off-center hits; distance gains via added carry.
ACCURACY/FORGIVENESS: Very forgiving makeup keeps shots in play more than most—gear effect turned up to the max; gives confidence to swing for the fences without losing control.
FEEL: Anything hit near the center feels good—a sensation of controlled fury, as though the face is springing into theball; addictive, crisp, explosive feel.
PLAYABILITY: Promotes a piercing flight; no need to shape shots when you can hit it consistently at your target.
LOOK: No-frills look;
Ping K15 Driver big, friendly clubhead with subtle, non-obtrusive alignment aid; tasteful dark gray coloring.
CONS
You might hit a soft fade or a gentle draw, but don’t expect much workability; a few testers aren’t sure it’s a huge upgrade from the G15.
